As described above, in the compression ignition engine in which the communication hole is provided between the sub-chamber and the main chamber, the fuel injected into the sub-chamber does not progress very actively but the gasoline is used as fuel. When methanol or the like is used, if the compression ratio is increased, spontaneous ignition occurs and combustion cannot be controlled. Therefore, a control valve is provided between the sub chamber and the main chamber to prevent spontaneous ignition at the beginning of the compression stroke of the engine. The sub-chamber with this structure does not self-ignite due to lack of air, and the control valve is opened by the pressure of the compressed air from the main chamber, requiring a large driving force. Requires large electromagnetic devices and large power.
